How would I use ftp instead of sftp on my virtual hosts.

I’m using the one click wordpress user wordpress and my files are stored at var/www/

What user are you connecting as? Where are you storing your website files?

Getting permission denied whenever I try to do something in filezilla.

I’m trying to access my apache virtual hosts with ftp but I’m having difficulty getting it to work. <br>I’ve just restarted my droplet again from an image unbuntu 12.04. I don’t know if you could take me through this to get this work.

What kind of trouble are you having? Do you see any errors? Are you able to log in but not able to upload any files?

Yes, I got that solved. But I’m still having trouble logging in with ftp to my virtual host accounts.

After you installed MySQL, did you execute the following commands? <br><pre>sudo mysql_install_db <br>sudo /usr/bin/mysql_secure_installation</pre> <br> <br><i>See</i> <a href=“https://www.digitalocean.com/community/articles/how-to-install-linux-apache-mysql-php-lamp-stack-on-ubuntu”>How to Install Linux, Apache, MySQL, PHP (LAMP) stack on Ubuntu</a>

Thanks Kamal but I’ve done a new install for my droplet. The quick wordpress install but the only thing is I’m now having trouble with mysql. I’m getting this error: ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user ‘root’@‘localhost’ (using password: YES) <br> <br>Any help would be apprecieated. I shall look at that article and see if it can help me. <br>
